My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

Destiny tied them together. This was the start of their close and lasting friendship. They met because of a misunderstanding, but made friends in an unexpected way. This sort of friendship only belonged to people with some real personality.

Kevin had a good long sleep, and didn\'t wake up until the dinner was ready. He opened his eyes and felt the darkness surrounding and engulfing him, which made him panic unconsciously. He got paranoid due to the nervous tension in the last two days. The boy stood up, completely losing sight of time and place.

Suddenly, the bedroom door opened, and a figure came inside, turning the light on. The bright glow of the light-bulb made Kevin feel dizzy for a brief moment. When the dizziness passed, he saw Leena stand beside the bed and stare at him. He immediately felt relieved. A big smile cracked on his face.

"You\'re already awake! I intended to wake you up if you were still sleeping," said Leena, surprised. She had a long white dress on. It was warm inside the room, so Leena didn\'t feel cold. Seeing Kevin was awake already, sitting on his bed, she was really awkward. She didn\'t bear to disturb his sleep. But the dinner was ready and her tired husband needed some real food as well as a good rest to get invigorated.

"Yeah! What time is it? How long have I been sleeping?" Kevin massaged his temples softly and rhythmically. He couldn\'t remember the last time he slept this soundly and deeply.

Kevin called his sister several times and she didn\'t answer. He frowned, also worried.

"What\'s wrong? Didn\'t she answer her phone?" Leena asked looking at Kevin with worry. She knew Claire was a good girl and wouldn\'t stir up troubles without provocation.

"Yeah... I don\'t think she heard her phone ring. We shouldn\'t be waiting for her. Let\'s eat," said Kevin, obviously displeased and disappointed. Kevin left his phone at the table and was about to pick up chopsticks when the door opened and Claire came inside. All eyes were on her and she felt embarrassed.

"What are you doing, staring at me in such a weird way?" asked Claire. She looked herself, examining her clothes, but didn\'t find anything wrong about her outfit.

"Where have you been? We\'ve been waiting for you to join us for dinner. Don\'t you know that somebody back home might get worried about you when you don\'t answer your phone? Leena just got discharged from the hospital. Don\'t you think you should come home earlier and try to take care of her?" Shannon almost shouted at Claire. Extremely disappointed, she thought her daughter had changed, but actually she remained the same. She was still the spoiled child, self-willed, selfish and naive.
